  • The Connected Urban Life
    THE CONNECTED URBAN LIFE 4-6 November 2015 How can new ways of connecting make cities better for all? SIX MUMBAI 4-6 NOVEMBER 2015 WELCOME Welcome to Mumbai and welcome to the 8th annual SIX summer school! This is SIX’s first ever event in India and we are really pleased that you are sharing this experience with us. Mumbai is the perfect city to be exploring this year’s theme – The Connected Urban Life. As well as being the entertainment, financial and commercial capital of India, Mumbai is increasingly recognised as a hot bed of some of the most exciting urban innovations. With an exploding population, these innovations build on the civic consciousness and social infrastructures of Mumbai’s dense and dynamic neighbourhoods. The participants this year come from more than 20 different countries across 6 continents, and bring very diverse range of skills and experiences and there couldn’t be a better city for us to meet! We guarantee that each of you will have your own special experience. From very high tech to low tech working in perfect harmony, of systems and chaos somehow functioning simultaneously, of informal and formal, and of temporary and permanent – this city is full of contrast. From the tranquillity of urban farm havens on the rooftops, to trendy new maker communities, we are sure that you will be captivated by this city as much as we are. The colour and energy is invigorating. Together with ISDI, Okapi and Vihara, we have created what we think is an exciting programme of visits, talks, workshops and spaces for collaborative learning and working.
